Burke Farm

Anyone coming to race Burke Farm this weekend?

2 things to get psyched about:

1) Sweet singletrack at dangerously high speeds

2) I've got a "free 11-piece mixed chicken with the purchase of an 11-piece mixed chicken at regular menu price" coupon at the Popeyes in Culpepper. That's 22 pieces of "mixed chicken" (approximately 175,000 calories from fat.) Don't worry, I checked, and it expires in December. The coupon, not the chicken.

3) If chicken isn't your thing, I've also got a coupon for a "free apple pie with the purchase of a shrimp combo at regular menu price." Nothing really says "I'm going to puke on the drive home" better than a hard effort on the bike and and then a plastic plateful of fried shrimp and pie.

Weather looks killer. 78 and sunny after a few days of intermittent drizzle to get things tacky. And even if it is a little wet, no one can put on a sloppy race like Konrad.
